Do you use line data with a PAGEDEF for the job needing OMR marks, or is is fully-composed AFP? Are the OMR marks the same for every document? Are they on the first page, last page or each page?
Static marks are the simplest. The marks themselves can be produced with lines (underscores, text drawrule commands, GOCA graphics or image). You need to check with the inserter vendor for specs of thickness, position, length and spacing. The easiest way to insert static marks is to create an overlay containing nothing but the marks in the correct position. If you can change the application, insert some indicator that can be used by the PAGEDEF to insert the overlay. Variable marks require either modifying the application to insert something on each page that, for example, a PAGEDEF could use to call an overlay (see Overlay Variable in the PRINTLINE or LAYOUT). There are many other ways to insert OMR marks. The best choice depends on your application. With more information I might be able to provide a sample application. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
